"Quantum effects" is not the same as "quantum computing". This is the same bullshit as the D-Wave marketing, just in a different domain.
Quantum computing happening in the brain is an extremely extraordinary hypothesis, and requires some very good evidence before it's accepted. Quantum effects happening on the brain is a "well, duh, and you'll tell me water is wet later?" hypothesis, and requires some good evidence not to believe in it.
